Lost GardensA Poem by Heather Clayton
I wait.
I keep waiting in the garden at midnight. The moon flowers blooming around me. I stand. I keep standing to see what's below me. The ground is rumbling, I'm alone. I think. I keep thinking how I wish I weren't alone. The sky is hanging, like a dark-purple midnight. I spot a flying camera in my direction. I follow. I keep following the camera to see where it goes. The camera stops and takes a picture of me. I take the photo from the camera. On the back is written about me. I wait. I stand. I think. I follow. But there is only one of me. I am lost in the garden of Eden. But with this photo I will leave, I will leave it for those who want to find me.
